“As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way.” – Mary Anne Radmacher
December is right around the corner and one way to celebrate the holidays with your students is by creating a digital calendar of activities. You can create an advent calendar full of cool web tool projects, a calendar of kind acts, a calendar to motivate students to keep learning during the break, a calendar introducing students to different traditions and cultures around the world, or a calendar of writing prompts. Below find a digital calendar with an example of the ideas above for each week and a template to create your own December Digital Calendar using Google Docs and Thinglink.
Create a Digital Calendar
To create your own interactive digital calendar:
- Go to my Google Calendar Template and make a copy. Add an image to the header.
- Take a screenshot of the calendar so it is a jpg or png image.
- Upload this image to ThingLink.
- Add links, prompts, challenges, missions, or apps to explore.
Challenge: Create your own digital calendar to inspire students to explore your topic in meaningful ways.
